Operating on 145.850 MHz with their repeater they are into the SATELLITE BAND and following the IARU band-plan they interfere the International Satellite Service ! Obviously the team "ondatelematica.it managing the above repeater is a very and very IGNORANT TEAM in this matter ! BUT IT IS NOT ALL ! Unfortunately in Italy the Communication Ministry do not take care on how the frequency band is divided and managed inside between 144 to 146 MHz and do not recognize by law the IARU Band-Plan so that every one can do everything he want to do inside the 144 to 146 MHz band whithout any penalty. In Italy the IARU Band Plan is only considered a "gentlement agreement " wich in theory is followed only by the ARI members. The ARI (Associazione Radioamatori Italiani) is the only filiation of IARU in Italy but unfortunately in this country there are many other smaller radioamateur associations that do not recognize the IARU International Radio Union and since our Communication Ministry do not recognize the IARU band plan as the only one to be used by law it follow a terrific chaos into the amateur frequency bands in Italy. WHAT A SHAME ............!
